Conduct market research<\/h1>\n

Your business plan is the foundation of your business. It\u2019s a roadmap for how to structure, run, and grow your new business. You\u2019ll use it to convince people that working with you \u2014 or investing in your company \u2014 is a smart choice.<\/p>\n

Choose your business name<\/h1>\n

It\u2019s not easy to pick the perfect name. You\u2019ll want one that reflects your brand and captures your spirit. You\u2019ll also want to make sure your business name isn\u2019t already being used by someone else.<\/p>\n

Register your business<\/h1>\n

Once you\u2019ve picked the perfect business name, it\u2019s time to make it legal and protect your brand. If you\u2019re doing business under a name different than your own, you\u2019ll need to register with the federal government, and maybe your state government, too.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll use your employer identification number (EIN) for important steps to start and grow your business, like opening a bank account and paying taxes. It\u2019s like a social security number for your business. Some \u2014 but not all \u2014 states require you to get a tax ID as well.<\/p>\n
